Thanks for the info, I told the shop to shot for somehwere around the X73/ROW settings just a little above gt2 height and I hope it will be OK. I will post pics next week.

Interested in your thoughts once this is all done. I've been toying with this idea as well... I love RWD feel...I still miss my NSX...

If i have the PSS9's currently and would like to do a rear wheel drive conversion soon what type of coilover would be the next best alternative for the money without compromising any performance. JRZ, JIC, Motons, Ohlins,etc...? I really like my PSS9's. =)

I picked it up Monday night when I got back from Long Beach. It looks way better lowered with the PSS9's. They did not go as aggressive on the stance as I was originally talking about. I have to clear my driveway without scraping and didn't want to be riding on the bumpstops.
As for the RWD, I like it much better. It feels like it has more power and I think the gas mileage has even improved (according the the OBC). I have been taking it easy, though, after several warnings from the shop that did the conversion. They said the last time they did a RWD conversion on a 996TT the guy went out less than a month later (with PSM off) and lost control of the car and went down a canyon. They said to be very careful or to leave PSM on until I get some instruction/practice. I like driving with PSM off, but I will be careful of where I do it.
